The Loves of the 11[111rds.
.
Poets naves the loves of men and of
.
111:1g . Oili, but, they aye never been J: qm
klll
to stag of the loves of birds. They have
Ikon very neglectftil in this respect. The
loves of the birds would form as fruitful 4
tlititue its 'thoso of the poets themselves.
In their attachments they are generally
faithful and affectionate—and it must be
confessed they are, like men, a -little jeal
ous sometimes. Audubon gives a beauti
ful description of the loves of the bum.
ming-birds. He says that in their court
ship, the male dancing airily upon the
wing, swells his plumage and throat; and
whirls lightly around the • female ;' then
diving towards a flower, he returns with a
loaded ,bill which he proffers:to her, Ho
secina f fulliof eestacy, when: his.caresses are
kindly, received. , little Wings fan bei
, 4 they Rut, the.Elowem -and 'ha traufiferw to
;her bill the insect aud the, honey which; he
has procured. If his addresses are kindly
received with favor, .hia courage and care
are redoubled. He dares even to chase
the tyrant fly-catcher, and hurries the blue
bird and martin :to their nests; and then,
ou sounding pinions, he joyously returns
to, his 'only., mate.., Who would not be
'a humming, bird.? •. Audubon says.:
Could you, kind reader,.cast a momen
taryrglance at rthe nest ,of', the humming
bird. and see, as. I have .seen, the newly
hetelted pair of young, little larger than
,h.utuble-bees, naked, blind. and so feeble
afl 1312,redy to be able to raise their little
bills to receive „food from their parents ;
, and.could you see. .those parents. full of
anxiety• and foar, passing and .repassing
,within kfew inches of your facer alighting
on a twig not more than. a ,yarti'frem your
body, waiting the result of your unwelcome
visitin a state of thoutMost,dospair—you
could net fail to .be 'impressed with the
deepest pangs which ,parental affection feels
on the unexpected .death'-of a cherished
aita. Th,en liow,pleasing is it on , your
leaving the. spot, te e eee the returning hope
of the,parents, whet i 3 after, examining the
nest, theyfind their nursling untouched.''
We.have remarked :thee& that birds, as
well as:men. aro sometimes jealous in love.
An, exception ' however, may be found to
this general rule the golden-winged
wood-pecker,. ts Irequent,and well known
inhabitant of our',.: American , forests. A
mong the bright beaux and belles, of this
interesting, jealousies seem to ex
ist, and no quarrels-ever occur.. Cheerily
they-, hop,. through life, ..attended by the
good wishes of all- their acquaintances and
of each other. No sooner does Spring
call them to the pleasant, diity of selecting
tnates and pairing off, than their seizes
be "board trot& the tops of high, de
cayed trees . , proclaiming with, delight the
, opening of the welcome season. Their
note at this season is tnerrimeat, itself and
when heard at a little distance, resembles
tt,proliniged and jovial laugh. These gold
en-iringed wood-peckers are the darlings of
Audubon; In describing their Manner of
mating he sayi, that several males surround
a remalo, r,nd to prove the truth and earn
ner?tness of their love, bow their heads,
timed their tails, and move sideways,
baeleivards' and forwards, performing such
antics as would-induce any one witnessing
them to join his laugh to theirs. The fe
male coily flies to. another tree, where she
is closely followed by her suitors, and where
again the same ceremonies are again gone
-
through with until a marked preference is
indicated for some individual.
In thisway, all the.goldemvinged wood
peckers are soon happily. mated, and each
pair proeeeds to excavate a hole in a
tree fora nest. TheY work alternately,
with industry and apparent pleasure:—
When the nest is finished, they caress each
other on tree top, ratife their bills a
gainst the • dead branches' "chase their
cousins the red. head, defy the purple gra-,
kles to enter their nest, and feed plentiful.
ly on ants; beetles,' and Liras." By and
by the' female lays friar and six. eggs, the
whiteness and transparency of which are .
. doubtless the
..delight of her ,heart. These
.woo s dpeckers raise, a. numerous. progeny,
hitinag;twO breads every, seaserr.

dubon, as are also those of the wild turkey,
who is said to be' oven more ridiculous' in
his motions, and more absurd in his de
menstnitions of affection, than is our com
mon tame gander. The curious evolu
tions in the air of the great horned owl, or
his motions .when he has lighted near his
beloved, Audubon is hiinself unable to des
scribe. Ho says the bowing) and snap
pings of his.bill are extremely ludicrous;
and no sooner is the female assured that
the . attentions paid her by her lover are
the result, of sincere affection, thhtt'she
joins In the motions of her future mate.
So muoh for the love of birds. In many
reSpiets they reeerable those of then.—

10. Herman teas alldevotion; all pas
sion and sighs; he seemed but to live in
the light of my eyes. What words of en.
dearinent would fall from his . lips I how
conntless the kisses on my fingertips I—
',Love thinks bat of love !" •was his ar-'
dent pretence. .Alas ! I found his reek
onmi—dollars and cents!
11. Ono 'day he came in froin his labors
atschoOl-:--I 'thought he appeired unac
countably cool. Not one "Dearestaugel,"
or any sue& word, from the tongue of my
altered adorer was heard. That evening
ho called upon Annabel Chase: the' next
day I learned the whole - state of the case.
12. He supposed, it appears, dear papa
had tho "mks," was rolling' in dollars,
and swelling in "stocks," would "cut u p "
in good style, and in consequence, thathis
child would come in for a bit of "the fat."
When ho learned his mistake, it was odd to
discover how the rock went at once to the
heart of my lover I -
18. He came up to see mo. and saw mo
alone, and unfolded affairs with a grace all
Lis owe. Ho would have 4'preforad" me,
he said; fora wife, to any one that ho had
mot in his life; bat as for himself. he
hadn't a !lyre, and I must agree that it
was if fact vitire.
14. •Suoh. being tho case, he would bid
me adieu, and hoped the affair would not
vendor me "blue." I thanked .liim and
told him I always was taught that`the sea
held'as good fish as over was caught--"and
perhaps-I may yet do as well, my dear
Herman, as'bo linked for my life to a pen
niless German."
15. So we pitted. I hurriqd away from
the scene; if not gory "blue,' I"did feel
rather "green." 1 left in the stegecoach
the very next day, and shed a few 'tears
the first part of the way ; but five miles
passed over, the roadsgrew so bad, I look
ednut for the jolts and forgot tci'lm sad.
16. When .I got in the cars, and was
safe in my seat, what person, of all in the
world,l ahould meet ? Why, whom but
Fred. Forest He has as you know, beep

waqq bqi,to let down my veil and
'ti 4 lery hilt 'talking a while' with" that
toveota Fred.' put eueh sentimental trish
out of my head. He made his adieux at
the Utica Station, but oh we commenced
a delicious flirtation.
18. He came out to see me =we rode
and we walked, and news-papers over
and over. we' talked. The end, dearest A
my, you'll easily guess—he asked me a
question—and I answered, "Yen." Pack
up and come on, I dou't care how soon, to
"stand up with me on the 20th June:
19. A more thorough contrast there
never was seen, than Herunin and Freder
ick, in person and mien. Fred's eye.s are
are so smiling, so blue and serene, his
mouth is so delicate, rosy and clean.—
Herman's eye had at times, quite a sinis
ter flash—and often I saw crumbs on his
nasty moustache
20. Then Herman, you know, was
.un
`pleaiiiiitly while Fred. is so elegant,
wears such a dia

the guitar and violin finely ! Ho has a
